> > Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I don't think you do what medlib is suggesting. If a thread gets redirected from one board to another, a single post is redirected under your name, not the name of the original poster. Previous history does not seem to come along with it. Therefore, even if I am able to find out which thread is being redirected and from what board, we would still have to go back to the old board to follow the development of the thread. This may also happen, perhaps, with partial threads that respond to posts which were previously archived. It seems to be difficult, again, to follow the development of the thread. Also even sometimes when I do not see a redirection note, people seem to be responding to a previous post that I can't find. Mair
